18 * This interface acts as a container for an object serialized using the |

19 * structured clone algorithm. |
|
20 * |
|
21 * You can copy an object into an nsIStructuredCloneContainer using |
|
22 * initFromVariant or initFromBase64. It's an error to initialize an |
|
23 * nsIStructuredCloneContainer more than once. |
|
24 * |
|
25 * Once you've initialized the container, you can get a copy of the object it |
|
26 * stores by calling deserializeToVariant. You can also get a base-64-encoded |
|
27 * string containing a copy of the container's serialized data, using |
|
28 * getDataAsBase64. |
